Like A Thief
By Drew Kennedy

Capo 4

D       A     Em     Em/F#  G
On your mark, ready, set destruction
  D               Bm             A
A life sized reproduction of the past
D              A         Em    Em/F# G 
You ducked the charge of emotional abduction
D         Bm              A
Under the assumption that nothing ever lasts
   Em 
So forgive me if I’m wrong
        G                               D
But the path you walked along to get to me
       A                      Em
Is the one you used to leave, I have learned
    G                              A 
The sun is not the only thing that burns


Chorus:
D                                   A
If you’re gonna break my heart this time
                Bm
Treat it like a crime
             G
Do it like a thief
             D
Quiet and discreet
                A 
Don’t throw me away
                     Bm
In the middle of the day
                         G
If you’re gonna break my heart
                            D
You gotta do it in the dark



When you left, it looked like a train wreck
Everybody stopped and looked around
They saw me losing blood and steam
Tearing at the seams but I never made a sound
So I took it in the chest
You hit me with a left and then the right
When did you learn how to fight, it was murder in the first
And you never even asked me if it hurt


Chorus

Bridge:
Em                Em/F#       G
This time I’m not playing the fool
Em           Em/F#
I was tested by the best
         G                  A
And I’ve learned a thing or two

Solo

Chorus
